It's difficult nursing too many of them in a small flat over winter, though :) I have two more that I kept from last summer, hidden behind a curtain. But they are not as tall, and neither did they keep producing flowers for so long! This tall one was too big for my windows already when I first took it (back) in when we had the first frosty nights in autumn. But as it happily kept on blooming month after month, I just couldn't bring myself to cut it down (until now, when the last flowers had withered).DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-33779223701114319382020-01-17T19:24:11.000+01:002020-01-17T19:24:11.000+01:00Ginny, the geranium was still looking good before ...Ginny, the geranium was still looking good before Christmas. Three weeks later, however, it had given up blossoming and was just looking too tall for its own good... ;) DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4609118120551505936.post-53582120784751331222020-01-17T19:18:48.943+01:002020-01-17T19:18:48.943+01:00Graham, my question marks were indeed more about t...Graham, my question marks were indeed more about the "whys" than the "whats" ;) The green pipe was one of many sticking up along a new pavement (job in progress) - this was the only one with a plant in it, though ;) The headband thingy was on a bush along one of the paths in the graveyard. I suppose it may have been dropped by one person (child?) and found by another who hung it on the bush instead. Actually the headband was still there today when I walked past there again!

As to why ??? The second ??? is, I think, a headband but why anyone would wander around with a Christmas tree on a headband, heaven alone knows. Good luck to the geranium.
